My Magic Age

The first time I heard someone talk about the ivory tower was when Old Kuru was talking about his time studying in the Green Empire and the time he spent at the Ivory Tower School of Magic in the province of Sloyte. The ivory tower in my mind is actually a round tower decorated with ivory, and the tower should be hung with ivory ornaments, which is extremely luxurious. However, the ivory tower building described by Old Kuru is completely different from what I thought. He described the ivory tower as a tall white lime pillar, in which lived some old magicians with extreme ideas. These magic scholars are all paranoids. They have wasted the rest of their lives in such a white lime pillar. This is the ivory tower of Sloyte.

At that time, Old Kuru told me that the real ivory tower should be on the eastern continent. It is a tooth left by the king of ancient giant beasts, Behemoth, standing between heaven and earth. Later, it was discovered by some of the oldest human magicians that this giant tooth, which is hundreds of meters high, is hollow in the middle, and the inner wall of this giant tooth is painted with natural magic patterns. These magic patterns allow human magicians to establish the third magic civilization. In order to commemorate the contribution of this white giant tooth to the magic world, many advanced magic research institutes are called ivory towers.

I have always been full of respect and admiration for the ivory tower. At this moment, standing under the ivory tower, looking up at this magician tower that goes straight into the clouds, the shock in my heart is indescribable. If I really want to give this tower a title, I will call it: Oriental Pearl.

Yes, the height of this ivory tower is definitely higher than the Oriental Pearl in Magic City. I really can't imagine that such a huge circular building would be rumored to be the tooth of the king of ancient giant beasts. If it is just a tooth, how big would its body be? Are we really going to break the sky by stretching out our hands?

When we lined up to the square under the ivory tower, there were already two teams waiting here. In one team, the warrior apprentices were all wearing light blue leather armor, while the magic apprentices were all wearing light blue magic robes. The logo of the academy was embroidered on their right shoulders. Even if there was no beautiful small words under the logo, the galloping horses alone would let everyone know that they were students of the Galloping Horse Academy. These students gave people the feeling of being very, very neat, like well-trained warriors, with almost no flaws. Their entire team of 350 people was very neatly divided into 35 groups, each with a magic apprentice. Not to mention how many magic scrolls each of them brought, but now it seems that these magic apprentices have at least seven or eight kinds of magic scrolls tied outside their magic robes, carrying them on their backs, tied around their waists, held in their hands... all. Their shield warriors are all big guys who are close to the height of adults. In addition to wearing bronze armor, each of them also carries a huge door panel behind them. Such a shield makes me extremely speechless. This is a group of shield warrior apprentices who are extremely good at defense.

It is said that the students of the Horse-Running Academy are very powerful. I have never understood where they are strong before, but now it seems that they are really strong. At least the quality of our students in the War Academy is really not a little bit different from them. Looking back at the students who have been with us day and night, the number of people in all teams is almost uneven, and the clothes they wear are also varied. There is no uniform dress at all, just like a group of scattered soldiers. I looked down at myself and never thought about wearing the magic robe issued by the academy. Instead, I spent a lot of effort to buy a dedication suit. The reason is that the magic apprentice robe issued by the academy does not have any attributes that are beneficial to our spellcasting. In comparison, the dedication suit is much better than it.

The other team was from the Ziqing Academy, which we had met once before. I clearly remember that these students came in chariots. They wore purple and blue light armor and robes, and on their shoulders was a green mountain surrounded by purple air. In order to arrive on schedule from the remote Ziqing Mountain City, they actually rode in chariots.

I carefully counted their magic apprentices, but they were even fewer than ours. There were only 26 magic apprentices in our War Academy, and the rest were all warrior apprentices, while there were only 15 magic apprentices in Ziqing Mountain City, and the rest were all warrior apprentices. Almost every one of these warrior apprentices carried a bundle of javelins on their backs, and some warrior apprentices carried an iris shield and a javelin on their backs, so they were both offensive and defensive. Some warrior apprentices simply carried a spear of more than three meters long, and also carried a bundle of javelins, which was completely an offensive posture. Some warrior apprentices were all archers. It can be seen that their route was completely based on long-range attack methods, and they also had certain close combat capabilities.

Looking at these javelins, I was reminded of the beastwoman warriors on the Pai Plateau. They were really born throwing hunters. But this also made me feel scared. As long as I thought about the team battle, I would first face the baptism of three rounds of hundreds of spears. I wonder how many warriors would be left after rushing over under the rain of spears?

The captains of each team on our side are all elites in the academy. Everyone knows that the combat effectiveness of any academy standing in front of us is far above ours.

"Oh, Brother Flanders, we haven't seen each other for several years. I didn't expect you to still live in El City and actually become the team leader. It seems that Dean Godfrey really thinks highly of you. !" A magician leader walked out of the Galloping Horse Academy team and greeted Mr. Flender affectionately. He is also wearing a light blue magic robe, but the material and texture of the clothes are much better than those of the students. He also wears a certain magic hat on his head, his face looks a little pale, and there are two small squirts on his lips. Beard, looks very handsome.

At least he looks more pleasing to the eye than the bald Mr. Flanders, not to mention that Mr. Flanders is only casually wearing a magic robe, and his beard has some slight burn marks. He obviously did not expect to meet an acquaintance here. , Teacher Flender smiled a little reluctantly, but still walked up to him, shook hands with him, and said loudly: "Lou Ange, aren't you the same? The competition for the position of teacher at Galloping Horse College must be very fierce! It seems that you have also passed. Very good!”

"Rootless duckweed, just living in the Galloping Horse Academy to earn a living." Lou Ange, the handsome magic teacher of the Galloping Horse Academy, sighed, and Teacher Flanders snorted softly.

"This trip to Xinliu Valley is just a small adventure trip. It is not even as challenging as the several experience planes opened by our college. It is just better than the rich resources. After all, it is 'time turbulence'." "A piece of pure land in the world has ten years to recuperate and recuperate. During this time, there are countless magical herbs." Then. He leaned close to Flanders's ear and lowered his voice and said: "We have worked hard this time to collect some of the main magical herbal materials for the Lion Potion and the Spiritual Potion. Senior brother, you just need to inform your college. Those students, try not to compete for these magic herbs in Xinliu Valley, so as to avoid conflicts with our college."

Lion Potion: Can increase strength attributes for a short time. If you look at the properties alone, there is really nothing to say about this magic potion made by an alchemist. It is a combat potion. I don't think this kind of potion requires the dedicated manpower of Galloping Horse Academy to collect those magic herbs.

As for the spiritual potion, it is even more useless. Apart from adding some mental attributes for a short time, it has almost no effect. What is this potion used for? I thought maybe when I return to El City, I would be able to get a detailed answer by asking Yerkes. In any case, it seems that these two attribute potions must be very expensive here in Green, so I would like to pay more attention to them.

"It's a joke, whoever enters Xinliu Valley is not just for those rare magic herbs and mineral materials. Who can get these magic herbs depends on the luck and vision of the students. Why should our students of Zhanliu College give up these precious herbs to You?" Flender's anger suddenly surged up, his eyes widened, and he asked Lou Ange angrily, but he couldn't keep his voice down, which made Lou Ange very embarrassed.

Lou Ange also smiled coldly, suppressing his anger and showing a stiff smile, and said close to Flanders's ear: "Senior brother, don't be ungrateful. I'm just reminding you. After all, what's going on in Xin Liu Valley Things like this are not something you and I can control.”

He looked around with his eyes, and after a slight sweep, he said: "I think the most important thing about who can get which herbs in Xinliu Valley is not luck and vision, but real strength. It's dangerous inside Xinliu Valley. Abnormal, please remind your fellow students in remote rural towns like El City not to risk their own lives just because of a few magic herbs. The dangers there are not just monsters!"

"It's up to you who is afraid of whom! I don't think those children are worse than anyone else!" Teacher Flender argued stiffly.

I was standing not too far away at this time and listened to what the two of them said clearly. But at this time, I thought of what Fat Bobby said to me: Jijia, I heard that when exploring the Xinliu Valley, everyone must not only beware of the dangerous natural environment, harsh living conditions, and ferocious monsters, but also be careful Students from other colleges have also had fights over herbal medicines between the two sides in the plane before. After they left, it was nothing. Basically, the stronger side gained some advantages. The teachers of the academy and the mages of the Magic Guild ignored the complaints from those in the adventure plane. I heard that for every expedition, the Magic Guild would give a controllable number of deaths. As long as this number of deaths was not exceeded, the general Magic Guild would Neither will be held too accountable.

At the time, I thought Bobby was a little timid. After all, he was still a magic apprentice who had not learned any magic skills, so I asked him if he wanted to apply to the team leader and join our team. Bobby shook his head worriedly, turned around and left.

Now it seems that the stronger party has the advantage, and the strength of the colleges can be seen at a glance. Only now do I understand what Fat Bobby is worried about. He is worried that he cannot give himself Your team provides adequate protection!

Before leaving, the academy distributed three healing scrolls and three fireball scrolls to every magic apprentice who participated in this expedition, which greatly increased our confidence in these adventures. However, it seems that now, the academy has The help that can be given to us is pitiful.

My thoughts were interrupted by Lou Ange, the leading magic teacher of Galloping Horse Academy. When he saw the success, he aroused Teacher Flender's anger, so he suggested: "Since senior brother thinks that the students of our academy are equally excellent, then Let’s make a bet!”

His voice suddenly increased in pitch, allowing the nearby students of Zhanzhan College and Galloping Horse College to hear clearly. Everyone quieted down at this moment, so that Lou Ange's voice became clearer. And speaking these words in front of these students made Teacher Flender even more difficult to get off.

"Lou Ange, what do you want to bet on?" Teacher Flender's anger made him lose his cool. I felt that he was getting angry and fell into Lou Ange's trap.

"Let's bet on which of our colleges collects more magic materials and is more valuable!" Lou Ange said.

Teacher Flender was a little annoyed. He stared at Lou Ange and asked, "Okay! Let's bet on this. What do you think our bet is?"

Lou Ange smiled a little treacherously. He reached out and touched the mustache on his lips. He took out a square iron box from his arms and opened it carefully. Inside was a naturally formed gold nugget the size of an egg. There was a faint light on the gold nugget. It exudes rich magical fluctuations. Lou Ange glanced left and right, and then said: "I want to use this to challenge the magic iron ingot refined from the magic iron ore in the hands of my senior brother!"

"Ah! You want to bet my magic iron ingot with fine gold?" At this time, Flanders suddenly realized, frowning and smiling bitterly: "You have been planning my magic iron ingot for a long time, right?"

At this time, Lou Ange did not shy away from anything, and said directly with a smile: "Who said that only your blue fire, senior brother, can melt the magic iron ore? If God buys such a magic iron ingot, what will happen to me?" Even if I spend all my savings over the past few years, it won't be enough. The experiments I'm currently doing require some magic iron powder. At the end of the day, I just happened to take a fancy to the magic iron ingot in my senior brother's hand. However, if my senior brother wins, the thing he gets is far more valuable than the magic iron ingot. Do you think this golden fine gold of mine is also very good? ! However, if senior brother feels that the students in your college are not as strong as our Galloping Horse College, then forget it!"

"I'll bet you!" Teacher Flender was cruel. In order not to affect the morale of the students, he finally got into Lou Ange's trap.

At this time, I heard someone next to me say: "If there is such an interesting thing, why don't you take me with you?"

An instructor from the Ziqing Academy with two short-handled war spears on his back came over and said to Lou Ange and Flanders with great interest: "I used this ancient relic from the depths of the Ziqing Mountains to I found a magic pattern fragment in the book, I wonder if I can join this bet?"

Lou Ange didn't expect that someone would step in and kick him sideways. He was about to refuse, but after his eyes saw the broken page of the magic pattern, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth. It was a very ancient magic pattern. From the broken pages, it is not even possible to tell what kind of animal skin the leather on which the magic patterns are drawn is, but the complex and exquisite patterns are definitely very different from the previous magic patterns. No magician who has studied magic patterns can understand it. Let go of such a magic pattern fragment. Seeing this, Lou Ange couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and he raised his eyes and glanced at Flanders.

In fact, at this time, Teacher Flender had completely calmed down. He figured out that Lou Ange wanted the magic iron ingot in his hand and designed a trap to lure him into the trap. However, his bad temper was really taken advantage of by Lou Ange. The words were cornered and he had no choice but to accept the bet. However, in the eyes of a discerning person, the outcome of this bet was completely predictable and there was no suspense at all. In the end, Galloping Horse Academy would win.

Galloping Horse College has always had a large number of elite students appear every year. During this trip to Xinliu Valley, it seems that Galloping Horse College is at least two levels stronger than Zhanzhan College. I know that I am unlikely to win in this aspect, but Friend accepted the bet anyway. At this time, someone stepped forward to disrupt the situation, and Flanders was still very willing to make the gambling situation more chaotic. Anyway, whoever wins cannot be himself. Since he wants to give away a magic iron ingot, it doesn't matter who he gives it to. Since It was a trap set by Lou Ange. Teacher Flender naturally did not want the magic iron ingot to fall into Lou Ange's hands.

Teacher Flender thought about it and said: "No problem, as long as you bring something of equal value to us, you can participate in the bet! Your magic pattern fragment is indeed a rare thing, and it is of great value. It can be regarded as almost the same as fine gold..."

The teacher from Ziqing College had just joined the gambling game. The leading teacher from Wuyang College who was entering saw the lively chat here and joined in. After understanding the whole story, he also shamelessly took out an egg-sized egg. The arrival of the black pearl... made Lou Ange's face become more and more gloomy. The magic iron ingot that he had captured now turned out to be confusing. He looked a little depressed at the magic materials placed on the stone platform in the center of the square. They turned out to be some rare items that were hard to see at ordinary times. If he had these things , for a magician like him, it is tantamount to making a small fortune.

Until now, the students from Xinghai College still haven't arrived. It seems that they are destined to be late.

At this time, the door of the ivory tower slowly opened, and two magicians walked out one after another. Their age could not be seen, but the long beards on their chins showed that they were at least over fifty. The leader The elderly magician with a gray beard gently After coughing, the square quickly became quiet, and the magician said: "The details of how I want to enter Xinliu Valley have been emphasized to you repeatedly by the leading teachers of the academy. According to the calculations of the great magicians in the ivory tower, , this calm of the 'tide of time and space' The cycle is only about twenty days. The time and space gate connecting our Ivory Tower and Xinliu Valley can only last for about twenty days. However, in view of your own safety considerations, I ask you to return one after another after half a month, otherwise Once the door to time and space is closed, then you We will have to stay in there for at least ten years. I don’t want this to happen. The handsome and jealous Mei Yin sword, the timid and timid behavior, not to mention the pretty and stupid ones, can be replaced by a new one!

The words of the old magician caused a deathly silence in the square. So far, many students have only fantasized about entering Xinliu Valley and how to find those precious magic herbs, but they have not thought about how to return safely. The old magician's words undoubtedly sounded a warning bell.

Seeing that his words had some effect, the old magician seemed unwilling to say more, and directly changed the subject and said: "In a moment, let the students follow me into the ivory tower in the order they arrived. There is one requirement: Don’t make loud noises or wander around in the ivory tower. Anyone found violating the rules will be immediately disqualified from the expedition!”

"Okay, the students of Galloping Horse Academy start preparing. Follow me and enter the ivory tower in order! The leading teachers of Galloping Horse Academy can wait here, or they can come back here in half a month to pick up the students from your academy! "

After saying that, the gray-robed old magician turned around and walked into the ivory tower. The first team of Galloping Horse Academy followed closely behind and quickly walked into the ivory tower...
